Here in Manchester

Post Mon Feb 13, 2006 5:57 pm

Hey everybody.

Firsttimer here. So I'll do a little intro.

The names John, I'm here in Manchester, and I'm from Vancouver. Came over to see the 'Old World' and to get away from the familier. I'm currently wintering here and will soon be looking to get on the road again. I hoping theres a few Canuckelheads out there who'd like to go for a pint or three.

Also anyone out there looking for a travel bud? I came over solo, and well frankly doing to the lone cowboy thing is getting abit tired.

So, who's out there? Who's doing what?

John

Hey JohnJohn! Fellow Vancouverite living in Manchester here! Actually, I'm in South Manchester - Didsbury. I'd be happy to meet up for a pint! Though I'll have to give the travelling a miss as my boyfriend is emigrating to Canada and we're moving back in a few months. I know how travelling solo can be, though, since I did it for 3 months straight.

Anyway, drop me a line if you want to meet up sometime. My e-mail's in my profile.

Hey,

Im 24 from Toronto, Ontario and I have been living in Manchester now for 8 months. I know how the solo travelling is, I came over here by myself on a working Visa. I would definitely be up for going for a pint or three so, drop me a line.

Cheers.
Jeff

Just to throw a date and time out there, how's about Tom's Chop House, 2 pm on Saturday Feb. 25th?

Any other suggestions welcome.

Sorry.

I've now got friends coming in from Leeds this weekend anyway. I'm can be available Fridays after work, but my weekends are filling up fast between now and the time I head home. Anyone have any dates that look good? I work the standard Mon-Fri office hours.

Hey, more of us in Manchester! I've been here nearly 1 1/2 years and I haven't run into a single Canadian...

I'm in Fallowfield and up for a laugh. Defo on meeting others. How about first weekend in March?
